A hymenotomy is a minor medical procedure involving the surgical removal or opening of the hymen. It is done to treat imperforate hymen or other situations where the hymen is unusually thick or rigid. In the case of a person who has a hymen which has no opening, an opening may be created in order to facilitate menstruation. In situations where the opening is small, the individual may elect for hymenotomy to allow for sexual penetration of their vagina.
